Signs Your Teen Might Benefit from Speech Therapy

Speech services aren’t just for younger kids. Many middle and high school students benefit from targeted support that meets real-life demands.

Common signs in teens

  • Unclear speech or mumbling in fast conversation

  • Avoiding class discussions or oral presentations

  • Trouble organizing thoughts before speaking

  • Social withdrawal due to communication anxiety

  • Interview or college-essay prep stress

How therapy helps

We focus on functional outcomes: clear speech, presentation skills, interviewing, self-advocacy, pacing, and confidence.

Support your teen with skills that last beyond high school.
